Legendary singer Diana Ross was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the American Musical Awards this weekend, and closed the show with an incredible speech.

“This is the family. We love you so much, so very much,” she gushed while accepting the prestigious accolade with her family by her side. “This is all about love. This says it all, this is my family and I’m sending love out there to all of you.”

“I really love being here,” she continued, “and I feel so humbled by this. I love you all. I think you know that. Thank you so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you.”

Her daughter, Tracee Ellis Ross, spoke to Entertainment Tonight and said, “My mom is receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award so there’s a lot of nostalgia this evening and a lot of excitement. It’s the perfect way to kind of put a bow on the 45th anniversary. A little tidbit: I don’t know if people know this but the first award that was given out at the first American Music Awards was received by my mother 45 years ago.”
